Happy feet movie
I first watched this movie was on dvd with my little cousins. It was quite interesting with the nice dancing and singing. The storyline was pretty good. One thing I didn’t really understand was how Mumble, the main penguin went back his own specific colony of penguins, but I …

Congratulations, It’s a Boy! movie
Congratulations, It’s a Boy! is a movie I recall seeing back when it was released originally in 1971. It starred Bill Bixby as playboy businessman, Johnny Gaines. Bixby did a fine job here, but it was interesting to me when I re-watched it recently that he looked tired …
Movie Cars
Cars is one of the best animation film that I really really love so much. I love the animation and the 3D effects of the film. I am sure that all of it were skilfully done just to make it more pleasing to the eyes. Not only did I …

JUNO
This Movie Rated PG13 ,it’s only 95 minutes not counting next attractions. Whow just who is this titular, quirky,sardonic, fresh-faced 16 or 17 years ol. Plalyed to perfection by Ellen Page. In the breakout performance of the year? maybe yes, maybe no. The opening minutes of the this movie …
Movie Lakeview Terrace

Moving McCallister
“Moving McCallister” is an out of the ordinary teen movie from the director, Andrew Black. This is one of the first movies for Black and unfortunately it lacks with regards for the flow of the story, however I must add that Black left his inprint on trying not to …
The Flim-Flam Man,1967 movie
This is a wonderful, unfairly little known and even more unfairly not-yet-released-on-DVD comedy starring the great George C. Scott. If you are a fan of George Scott, definitely check it out! He plays (wonderfully) a veteran con artist named Mordecai Jones who maintains that “you can’t cheat an honest …
Movie Thunderball
Thunderball with Sean Connery and Claudine Auger.
This is one of the earlier James Bond sequels and therefore features the super handsome Sean Connery in the lead. It does lack some of the refined touched that we came to enjoy in the newer sequels such as …
Mirrors film
MIRRORS starring Kiefer Sutherland, Paula Patton, Cameron Boyce, Erica Gluck, Amy Smart, Mary Beth Peil, John Shrapnel and Jason Flemyng was a great movie. I do not know if I should classify it as a horror, thriller or suspense movie, but I can classify it as a must see …
Casino Royale
I was very skeptical about watching Casino Royale for I was never interested in any of the previous James Bond movies. I figured they are very predictable, where the hero beats everyone up, always winning and ends up with the beautiful girl. I’m so glad I gave Casino Royale …
Brother Bear
This is one of my favorite animated movies. I love to watch this movie with my younger sister. It’s a great movie for the whole family and enjoyable to watch. It kept me interested and entertained throughout the whole movie. There were plenty of parts that made me really …
The Nannies Diary
The actress, Scarlett Johansson is simply great in the role of the nanny Annie Braddock. I would have no problems leaving my two year old daughter with her, if she is in search for a full time nanny job which I doubt it!
“The Nannies Diary” is the story of …
Four Brothers (2005 movie)
A little old lady is tragically and brutally slain in a side shop in her neighborhood. Hearing the news, her four adopted sons return home to find the people responsible for the death of their beloved mother. This movie is a true masterpiece from a well-known director John Singleton. …

Who Shot Patakango? movie
From 1989, Who Shot Patakango? is a sort of odd coming of age movie about teenagers attending high school in Brooklyn, New York. The star of note was Sandra Bullock as Devlin Moran. Following are some thoughts on this production.
–I actually saw this movie years ago, but …
Private Eyes movie

One of the films we watched was Private Eyes, starring Tim Conway …
Fathers’ Day
Won’t it be great to live with two dads such as Billy Crystal and Robin Williams? In can imagine that you will laugh through life all the way! When I heard that these two great stars decided to join forces for the movie “Fathers’ Day”, I expected to have …
The Big Bang Teory (Comedy)
This was the funniest American serial comedy of all time for me. It is simply funny and not that typical funny, but a smart one. I am a big fan of this serial, The Big Bang Theory. Until now, it has reached season two and over 20 episodes of …
“The Craft” (1996 Film)
The 1996 film “The Craft” is a mystical and yet disturbing film about four girls who start their own Covent in hopes of becoming witches. When the fourth and last member of their circle move to town and begin attending school with the other three girls, she seems to …
The Prince of Tides film
From 1991, The Prince of Tides stars Barbra Streisand and Nick Nolte. Sometimes I find it hard to believe those two made an on-screen couple, but they definitely did. Also in the film, which Streisand directed, are Blythe Danner, Melinda Dillon, Kate Nelligan, George Carlin, and, making …
Interview with the Vampire (the movie)
I absolutely love this movie! I remember when I was about 10 years old and I would watch it all the time in the dark at night. But I loved the acting. The language was fluid to me, like flowing water, and I hung onto the actors …
Blue Hawaii movie
Blue Hawaii is one of my favorite Elvis Presley movies. Part of it is because of the beautiful scenery, part is due to the musical score, part is due to a decent plot, and part is due to Elvis himself.
I’ve been to Hawaii and to the hotel where …
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead Movie
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are the friends of Hamlet that are encouraged to cheer him up by his parents who are worried about him, but instead Rosencrantz and Guildenstern betray their friend in the most unexpected way.

LOST-Season 1 DVD
A flight crashes, and its passengers are stuck on a deserted island forced to create a world for themselves on the island where they can survive.
I actually had never seen an episode of LOST before I saw this DVD collection. A friend of minewas addicted to the show, and …
The movie Next Friday
This movie was so lame and the first Friday movie was definitely so much better. Basically the main character Craig moves with his cousin for one day in the suburbs. Again the whole movie takes place on Friday and this movie is horrible. I found that there were no …
Mad Max: Fury Road (2015 Film)
2015 was a historic year for me. Simply because it was the time when I took filmmaking by heart. So many good movies were released last year, so many that I was spoiled by the scarcity of quality films this year.
Last year at this exact point, Mad Max: Fury Road …
Elf
I’m still watching Christmas movies today, mostly because there isn’t a whole lot for me to do with everyone being sick and us being low on cash (yet again).
One movie that just came on that I haven’t seen in a while is the Will Ferrell film, Elf. I have …
Bob the Butler movie
I ended up finally watching the movie Bob the Butler this past weekend. It was on my Netflix player but I never took the time to watch it because I am not a huge Tom Green fan and thought it would end up being kind of dumb.
It turned out …
Wonderland movie
Michael Winterbottom is a british filmmaker who has a very extensive production on his resume the last 10 years. The critics have been very positive about all of these films that include 24 hour party people and Welcome to Sarajevo. He often uses a documentary-like style and focuses a …
Taxi (movie)
Taxi is a movie about a cop undercover who teams up with a fast cab driver in New York to catch a bunch of women who have been robbing banks. First of all, a French movie of the same name has already been made that couldn’t have been worse …
Daffy Duck’s Quack Busters
I loaded another Looney Tunes Cartoon on our Netflix Player the other day for our daughter “Daffy Duck’s Quack Busters.” It was an OK movie but not as good as I expected.
When I loaded it, I figured it would be a cute spoof of the show Ghost Busters, or at …
21 movie
21, when i heard the name of this movie, I was a little confused as about what this movie would be about? But when I watched it I thought it was worth taking this risk. The movie starts like one boy who is looking to get in to …
HER, the movie (2013)
HER is one of the most interesting, innovative, and highly acclaimed films of 2013. Critics and audiences alike are passionate about this film. So what’s the reason? Initially, I thought it was solely because of the trendiness of this project, its sci-fi shell, and put the pretty picture.
But how …
Rear Window
I am reviewing the movie, Rear Window, starring James Stewart. James Stewart plays a man who has broken his leg. He is keyed up in his apartment with nothing to do. He has a girlfriend who stops in on him from time to time, and she is gorgeous, …

Batman Begins
“Batman Begins” is one of the best Batman movies I have ever watched. I thought the actor Christian Bale really did hid character justice and was just the right amount of “dark” for the superhero. I thought it was a big change from the movies “Batman and Robin” and …
Dil Hai Ki Manta Nahi Film
Dil hai ki manta nahi was made and was inspired by an English movie ‘It happen one night’. It was directed by Mahesh Bhutt and its star Amir Khan and Pooja Bhatt and the story about bus journey where pooja rich father girl with Journalist Amir Khan and falls …
Inglourious Basterds
I am a fan of Quentin Tarantino, with a caveat-I enjoy the action and dialogue of his movies, but I sometimes find that some of the violence is so gratuitous, that it doesn’t seem reasonable, and therefore, my enjoyment of the movie is less. I am not opposed to …
The Movie Baby Mama
I have to say that I absolutely love the movie Baby Mama. It was hilarious! It practically had me and my friends tolling on the floor. These characters could actually make you believe that they are who they were pretending to be. There was not a dull moment. Almost …
Lone Star movie
I’ve heard about Lone Star, but I’ve never been tempted to watch it. However, a friend sent it to me recently, so I figured I’d sit down and see how it was. There was actually a lead in to this with comments that intrigued me. Thus, …
Fallen Angels movie
This was the last film where Wong Kar-Wai used the same style he did with his earlier As tears go by, Hong Kong Express and, in some sense, The days of being wild. The difference between these films and his later, more sublime style, is that the story is …
Immortals (movie)
I remember how excited I was to watch the movie “Immortals” when I first saw the trailer being advertised back in 2011. I had even made plans to see it with friends since I was so sure that the movie would be exciting and just up my alley. What …
